"How can you say it's a bother?" Father Gu smiled, "Just stay here and recuperate, don't think too much."

  "Yes, you should avoid worrying when you are sick." Gu's mother advised, "Just rest here."

  "Thank you very much." Old man Zhang said gratefully.

  After everyone left, Old Man Zhang saw Zhang Yingzi looking around the room.

  She went to see her room again.

  The servants of Gu's house cleaned the room very carefully. Although there were no valuable furnishings in the room, the items displayed were all exquisite and beautiful.

  Zhang Yingzi really couldn't find any fault with it.

  Zhang Yingzi pouted and walked into Old Man Zhang's room. Seeing that there was no one in the room, she started to complain: "This Madam Gu seems to be very generous, but the furnishings in the room she arranged for us are all cheap. What's the matter? Is she afraid that we will drop or bump into something, or is she worried that we will steal something?"

  Old man Zhang opened his mouth to talk about Zhang Yingzi, but couldn't help coughing first.

  He pointed at Zhang Yingzi, who was coughing violently, gasping for breath, and his face turned a little red.

  For a moment, I couldn't utter a word.

  The maid brought by Zhang Yingzi hurriedly poured water for Old Man Zhang.

  After drinking the water, Old Man Zhang felt better in his throat. He said to Zhang Yingzi, "Yingzi, how did you become like this?"

  "The Gu family had no responsibility towards us, but they were willing to take me in to recuperate. Madam Gu even went to ask the Crown Princess for help with my illness." Old Man Zhang said, "What a distinguished person the Crown Princess is. But General Gu is only a fourth-rank official. How could he have such a close relationship with the Crown Princess?"

  "Mrs. Gu was so shameless as to ask the Crown Princess for help because of my illness." Old Man Zhang coughed twice and took a few deep breaths, "I'm afraid General Gu's future is also ruined."

  "Now you are also educated and learned etiquette." Old Man Zhang said, "Don't you know that a fourth-rank official can easily invite an imperial physician? That is a capability only a first-rank official can have."

  "What does a fourth rank mean in the capital? Who cares about those high-ranking officials and nobles?" Old man Zhang is no longer the ignorant person he used to be. "If Madam Gu goes to ask the Crown Princess for help, people will laugh at her for being so shameless and ignorant!"

  "Mrs. Gu has done so much for us, and you are talking about some decorations?" Old Man Zhang shook his head in disappointment. "And I think these decorations are all good. They are all exquisite and elegant objects, which make people feel happy when they see them."

  "Besides, this is not our house. The owner can put out whatever he wants. Who is it for us to point fingers at them?" Old Man Zhang said angrily. "Besides, you haven't seen what Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu have put out. How can you not know that the Gu family is not the kind of family that would buy such luxury items?"

  "General Gu is only a fourth-rank official. How luxurious do you want them to decorate? Didn't your teacher teach you that the families of officials in this dynasty all have rules. No matter the size of the house or the furnishings in the house, they cannot go beyond the rules." said Old Man Zhang.

  "Earlier at the inn, you first complained that Madam Gu refused to invite a doctor for me. Now Madam Gu has sacrificed her own dignity to ask the Crown Princess for help, and you have nothing to say, right? Why are you still nitpicking and talking about the decorations in the room?"

  "Yingzi!" Old man Zhang said, as if he was disappointed with his friend. "You should be grateful and don't be an ungrateful person!"

  "Dad, what do you mean by this? Are you blaming me?" Zhang Yingzi asked, "I went through so much trouble to bring you to the capital for treatment, but you never said a single good thing about me. Now you're complaining about my shortcomings?"  

  "I hope Madam Gu can ask the imperial physician to treat you. Isn't it for your own good?" Zhang Yingzi cried in grievance, "What could I have done wrong?"

  "Moreover, we saved General Gu, and we owed him a favor. Madam Gu also told us in person that we could talk to her about any difficulties we encountered. She boasted that she would help us. Now that we have come to her, shouldn't she fulfill her promise?"

  "If you don't have that ability, don't make such a boast." Zhang Yingzi's face was full of dissatisfaction.

  "Dad, don't always put yourself in an inferior position." Zhang Yingzi said, "They themselves said that we are their benefactors. Why do you always say that it is us who delayed General Gu's injury?"

  "If it weren't for us, General Gu would have been hiding in some deep mountain bushes waiting to die! Even if Madam Gu had great magical powers, how could she find him?" Zhang Yingzi said.

  "That's enough!" Old Man Zhang said weakly, "Stop talking! Yingzi, this is someone else's home, don't let the host hear it!"

  At this moment, Zhang Caiping's voice rang out from outside the door: "Master Zhang, Miss Zhang."

  Old man Zhang was startled and said to Zhang Yingzi, "I don't know if anyone heard what you just said."

  Zhang Yingzi frowned and took a few breaths before changing her expression and going to open the door.

  Seeing that it was Zhang Caiping standing outside, Zhang Yingzi smiled and said, "Second Madam Gu, why are you here?"

  Zhang Caiping's face showed no abnormality, and she was still as enthusiastic as when they first entered the room. She smiled and said, "I saw that you only brought one maid with you. I was worried that you didn't have enough people here, so I brought a few servants with me."

  "Especially for serving Master Zhang, servants are more suitable." Zhang Caiping said, "I brought a servant and a maid with me. Tell them what you need and tell them what you want. If there is something that is not available in the mansion, tell them to come to me. I will think of a way and try my best to solve it for you."

  "Madam Gu is too polite. Although I only brought one maid, it is enough." Zhang Yingzi said.

  When Xing'er, the maidservant brought by Zhang Yingzi, heard what Zhang Yingzi said, her face turned dark.

  Although the Zhang family was not very wealthy, it was fine when she was in the Zhang family. She only had to serve Zhang Yingzi.

  Now that I have come to the Gu family, I realized that each master has several servants around him. Everyone has their own division of labor, so they don't have to do everything themselves.

  With the comparison, Xing'er naturally felt a little unbalanced.

  And all the way here from Chong'an, she was the one who took care of Old Man Zhang.

  From serving tea and water, feeding water and food to wiping the body and changing the poop and pee, she was responsible for everything.

  Xing'er was not willing to do these things, but she had to do them.

  Now that Madam Gu has sent servants over, Xing'er can finally relax, but Zhang Yingzi refuses immediately?   Behind people's backs, Zhang Yingzi is not so noble.

  Zhang Caiping smiled and said, "Originally, there was only Xing'er, and she had to do everything. But serving Mr. Zhang is very inconvenient, and how can we ask Xing'er, a little girl, to do everything?"
